I can't at "I Love It" by Icona Pop finally taking off on iTunes. And "Arms" by Christina Perri. MTN might have another chance :derpga:

I love Arms. I'm glad to see it back in the top 100 :)

I never knew that I'm starting to become a fan of Phillip Phillips with his debut album, The World From The Side of the Moon. I like GGG. It sounds a decent follow-up hit to his almost 4x platinum debut single. The vocals are really good. And there's something with his voice that's quite addictive. I'd now say, I'm rooting GGG to become another top ten hit from him.

10 bucks says that GGG will be the "goodbye" song from Idol this year.

Previous songs have been Home by Daughtry, Home Sweet Home by Carrie Underwood, etc. They typically select songs from past idol winners.

If it's selected, it will get played every week on the show. It will probably be performed live as well.

So yea, it's basically a top 10 hit in the bag.

So, about the AI numbers. Isn't the current standard different from the past years because of the amount of new radio stations popping up? Is there a way to readjust Gaga's previous AI to the current standard today?

* I think some of you would LOVE this website, it lists the DAILY sales of the songs on the Top 100 of iTunes in every country WW, great way to estimate/keep track of the most popular songs weekly sales before BB releases them,

Gone Gone Gone sounds like a hit. Especially if it receives the heavy promotion from Idol. Wouldn't mind it.

How come if a dance-pop artist does 2 or 3 songs that sound similar production-wise its "generic", but Pink can keep sounding the same thisd album and its fine, and nobody calls Rihanna's latest a generic piano ballad.

There's a major difference: P!nk puts out good music, consistently, and Rihanna puts out ****, all the time. Half of TTT was good, half was ****ty filler. 1/4 of Unapologetic is good, 3/4 is ****ty filler. P!nk's album is perfect from start to finish, and her single choices are always spot on.

Couldn't be more right.

118m AI Bad Romance

That's so sad. If it were released nowadays it would probably be over 200 AI. I just don't understand why the difference is so large between 3 years.

In addition to this, female vocalists are expected to be a lot more talented. This isn't as prevalent on GGD, but in the US, Katy/Rihanna/Ke$ha ect are constantly bashed and being wrote off as a joke because they apparently can't sing. However, nobody has a problem when LMFAO/Maroon 5/Flo Rida etc can't sing. It's perfectly acceptable if a male vocalist stinks, but a female vocalist will be get hell about it.
